Check the dual mass flywheel while you're in there, depending on miles it might also need replacement.

RMS is easy and cheap to replace.

Whether to replace the IMS bearing or not is entirely your decision.

OEM clutch kit is fine for street drving. If you track the car, you might want to consider the Sachs sports clutch kit.

I track my car often so at 92,000 miles, I replaced my original clutch with the Sachs sports clutch kit and a light weight flywheel (LWFW). I replaced the RMS but did not replace the IMS bearing. With 10,000 miles and 15 track days since then, everything is still running fine.
